Arsenal are reportedly interested in landing Porto attacker Yacine Brahimi as a successor of Alexis Sanchez.

Sanchez’s deal at the Emirates Stadium will end next summer, and it seems almost inevitable that the South American will leave the North Londoners either in January or at the end of the 2017-18 season.

Mesut Ozil is also in an identical situation at the club, and it is believed that the German will even look to move on.

Finally, Arsenal are already considering successors for the vital duo, with A Bola suggesting that manager Arsene Wenger has recognized Brahimi as the perfect footballer to boost his attack.

Brahimi, 27, moved to Porto from Granada in 2014 and has netted 32 goals in 134 games for the Portuguese giants.

This campaign, the Algerian international has scored four goals and made three assists in 11 Liga NOS fixtures.
